Last minute #FOSDEM tips for newbies:
- wear layers
- use a scarf and gloves
- assume the onsite ATM is empty when you need it**
- be your usual open and friendly self
- be excellent to each other

Looking forward to seeing everyone again. It is home, away from home, with like minded and brilliant people.

I'll be around, just look for the "SWAT" name tag and start a conversation :-)

2026-01-27 update: **the onsite ATM went the way of the dinosaurs (e.g. it is gone)
